NEW PHOTOS OF FAF DE KLERK’S BABY GIRL
Faf de Klerk and his wife Mine welcomed their first child together, a baby girl named Remi-Ré de Klerk on 27 February at Rosepark Hospital in Bloemfontein. Mine has since shared new photos of Remi-Ré on Instagram, calling her a gem and expressing love for her baby. Take a look…

“Love you baby Rem❤️. You are a Gem,” she wrote.

Faf proposed to Mine in May 2022, and the pair tied the knot at the La Paris Estate in Franschhoek in October 2022. The pair met through mutual friends in Hermanus in December 2015. Mine later invited Faf to a friend’s wedding. The pair’s relationship faced the challenge of long distance as Faf moved to Manchester in 2017 while Mine was working at her father’s pharmacy in Postmasburg, Northern Cape.

During the Covid-19 lockdown, the distance became too much for the pair. They then decided to just be friends. However, the pair found their way back together in 2021.
